MIL vs NAP Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:
Genaro Gattuso faces his former manager as AC Milan welcome title-challenger Napoli in Serie A at San Siro, in Milan, on Saturday night (IST).
Both Carlo Ancelotti and Gennaro Gattuso achieved everything together at San Siro. Those were the days when AC Milan were the king of both Italy and Europe, winning Scudetto and Champions League on many occasions.
But the current situation is that Milan are striving to become what they were once under Gattuso’s guidance, while Ancelotti is playing his trade with Napoli, aiming to take them to the very high perch.
Now the once Guru and the Protege are against each other, masterminding to strike a hammer blow to each club’s aspirations. Though, in the case of Milan, it’s about achieving a top-4 finish, which won’t end even if they lose this game.
But the same can’t be said about Napoli whose aspirations are much higher. They missed out on the top prize in Italy by little margins last season. So they were always going to be the main challenger to rival Juventus for the Serie A.
However, Juve’s near-perfect start has left Ancelotti’s team with no or little room to make erros. As things stand, Naples are 2nd but nine points separate them and the Old Lady at the top.
So anything less than all three points would effectively end their title hopes.

MIL vs NAP Dream11 FANTASY TEAM:
AC Milan FANTASY PREDICTION:
It’s a battle between the former mentor and protégé with neither of them will be going easy on each other. It’s a game which could prove crucial for both the teams as they aim to achieve their respective targets.
A negative result for the Naples could end the title challenge while Rossoneri, could find themselves out of the Champions League places if they fail to win the AS Roma win their match.
Based on the form, nothing separates them but the quality is certainly in Napoli’s camp and that’s what decides the big match.
Still, it’s San Siro and we back AC Milan to get something out of this match.
